I am not looking forward to Pete's reaction to this episode. (We're 4 episodes behind right now.) He knows that the Red Wedding is a big thing, but nothing else.

The wolf was the worst. And seeing Arya so darned close to being able to free him...and failing.

I did not know that detail, and I very sincerely thank you folks for mentioning that in here, because hopefully foreknowledge will keep me from completely melting down over that.

And warning: you can't just close your eyes, the audio is heart-breaking. Maybe leave the room for a minute when you see it coming. And you will see it coming.

Oh, my poor SA.

Maybe we should have a support group.

Jilli,

FWIW, I thought "Red Wedding" referred to another wedding. So, as book readers among you might imagine, I have been on edge for every damn wedding or mentioned wedding since Season 1.

Pete might not know it is THE red wedding unless he has some kind of preparation ahead of time. The ominous Internet mentions tied with Billy Idol clued me in to avoid twitter yesterday and watch the ep without benefit of your posts or others.

Pete has been speculating that the Red Wedding is the wedding of Joffrey and Margaery. He has NO idea.

right. I was with Pete.

Be gentle with him.

no one interesting to me died last night

Damn, woman, that's cold! Cat Stark was among my very favorites. Sob.

I really need to read these books, don't I? Especially since DW has and keeps prompting me to read them.

Haha The Onion: [link]

Also, footnote to the Red Wedding, it is based on an actual event that happened in Scotland in 1440 or so.

I wonder if we're going to get a GoT on Facebook for this week. I wouldn't blame them if they just skipped this week.
